HomePNA

[rrf]

I currently have a LAN consisting of 2 Windows machines (Win98SE and Win2k) and a SUN Ultra1 workstation. All 3 computers share DSL via ethernet using the Netgear RT314 Router/Switch. I would like to add another Win98SE machine into the mix but using HomePNA instead of ethernet (this computer will be located elsewhere in the house with only access to a standard phone line).

What do I need to accomplish this? Do I need to purchase one of those Home Network Ethernet to Phone Line Bridges such as Netgear PE102 or Linksys HPB200 bridges?

Thanks.

You're exactly right. This is what your network might look like with the bridge: Network Diagram + Bridge
